NASHVILLE MARKET REPORT.

Corrected from the Nashville american
every Thursday evening.
The general market displayed
more spirit to-day than on yesterday
or any previous day, perhaps for
a week. Orders from drummers on
the road flowed in exceeding volume.
Country merchants generally report
trade a little dull at this, the farmers,
busiest season, though business is in
a good, healthful condition aud on a
sound basis. Except in sections of
the territory tributary to Nashville
where the drouth was particularly Sc
we're, farmers and planters are in
goodshape and merchants anticipate
a profitable season. itadaap aa4
The department for groceries was
active today, and prices very firm,
few changes occurring in values in
any particular. line. The provision
market was rather dull than other
wise. Country produce receipts are
about up to the demand. No
changes in values are reported.
The eggmarket was steady at IA
cents. Butter was slightly off.
Chickens and hens are in fair re-
quest. Flour was quiet and steady.
Wheat receipts were light and the
market firm at quotations.

A Cheapside shop has a card warn
ing everybody against unscrupulous
persons who infringe our title to
deceive the public" We are afraid
the shopman does not quite say what
he means, any more than the pro-
prietor of an clearinghouse near the
docks, on the door of which may be
read the following announcement,
conveying fearful intelligence to the
gallant tars who frequent this port /:
"Sailors' vitals cooked here" A
clearinghouse keeper announces in
one of the newspapers that he has a
cottage to let containing eight rooms
and an acre of land. A dealer in
cheap shoes was equally ambiguous
when he c%ounseled, in one of his adj
vertisements, " Ladies wishing these
cheap shoes will do we'll to call soon,
as they will not last long" The
same may be said of the following {:
"This hotel will be kept open by the
widow of the former landlord who
died last summer on a new and inn
proved PLAN" A circular advocat-
ing a summer resort calls attention to
numerous cozy seats in forked trees
and elsewhere-some of them Just
large enough for two persons. A
manufacturing wire worker invites
the public to come and see his invisi-
| BILE wire fence.

A Newspaper Man Strikes il Rich.

The proprietors of The Citizen
have fallen heirs to a princely estate
located about 81 inches to the left
of the wart on the mans nose in the
moon on which is found 16 gold
mines each yielding q car loads of
gold a day. We have also bought
out 1877 clothing stores and 100 gro
ceries so hat we get our food and
clothing for nothing. Hence we do
not need that money you owe for the
The Citizen.
We are having four palaces erected
to live in and we already own a
block of national banks on Wall
street besides 3Ol corner lots in De-
catur. We pay our hands every
night in gold cut of a coal shovel.
Please don't pay what you owe.
We wouldn't know what to do with
it.
When you get to the pearly gate
st. Peter will ask you whether
you owe for The Citizen, and rath-
er than get you in a scrape we'll hire
a man to receive your subscription il
you will payit this century.
Silver dollars received at par and
no questions asked.
We have bought a car load of mi
croscropes to send to our subscribers
who owe and won't pay. Please
look for your soul. When you find
a little sickly looking thing that
looks like a fy-blow on a dishrag,
that's it. This size are worth about
ten cents a tin cup full in sheol.
Please don't pay us. We are max
ing a nicelist and we want you on it.
We are preparing to build a monu.
ment 4 miles high and we are going
to have Mace Ezell to paint a sign
on it in letters that can be seen from

out pleasure on every side, through the

October days fill the air with the perfume
of ripe fruit. Some women cling to their
own houses like the honeysuckle over the
door, yet like it, sweeten all the region
with the subtle fragrance of their good

which are ever dropping precious fruit
around them. There are lives that shine
like star beams; or charm the heart like
songs sung on holyday. How great a
bounty and a blessing it is to hold the
royal gifts of the soul SO that they shall
be music to some, and fragrance to others
and life to all 1t would be no unworthy
thing to live for, to make the power
which we have within us the breath of
another mans joy; to scatter sunshine
where only clouds and shadows reign, to
fill the atmosphere where earth's weary
toilers must stand with a brightness
which they cannot create for themselves.
and which they long for, enjoy and ap-
preciate.
